Just playing around vibe coding atm, but would there be any appetite for an UMB.FYI dashboard folks could use as their browser default page featuring key Umbraco info?

The 100th issue of UMB.FYI is coming next month! 🎉

I’ve always avoided tracking clicks, so I don’t know what kind of impact it’s had — but maybe you do?

If you saw a boost after being featured, I’d love to hear about it. Tag me or use #UmbfyiEffect to share. 💙

#Umbraco
A large group of enthusiastic people wearing matching “CodeCabin 2018” black t-shirts pose outdoors on a wooden deck. Many have their arms raised in celebration. The group is surrounded by lush green hills under a partly cloudy sky, with one person playfully lying on a red picnic blanket in front. Three people sit on a cozy red plaid couch, smiling and focused on a Dell laptop. Two women and one man lean in, enjoying a relaxed collaboration. The table in front of them holds soda cans, snacks, and a red pouch. A casual, homey atmosphere is visible, with others chatting in the background. A large group of people sits around a long wooden dining table, smiling and enjoying a shared meal in a cozy indoor setting. Plates of food, drinks, and decorative flowers fill the table, and many attendees raise glasses or cans in a toast. The relaxed atmosphere suggests a retreat or community event.

Name an Umbraco event that starts with the letters “Code”, and leaves folks feeling inspired, informed and enthused for doing more in our friendly community? The answer could be “Codegarden” or “Codecabin”! Read my comparison of the two dev.to/lottepitcher... (only a few days to apply for CC25!)
